How it Works

Bear Spray Shack is similar to your favorite red movie rental box but for bear spray. You can rent AND return our Mace bear spray canisters straight at the rental machine. We geek out on technology, and the programing behind Bear Spray Shack validates that every canister rented will be un-sprayed, at full volume, and safe for re-distribution.

We’ve coded out human error with our rental machines by using machine vision, scales, and our figurative secret ingredient: technology that identifies if the canister has been sprayed before it even gets weighed. This three-step validation process is what makes us different than anyone else on the market.

Our moms think we’re geniuses, but we just think we’re making the safest, most reliable and affordable option on the market.

Walk-up Rentals

For the free spirited and the spontaneous ‘outdoorsy’ people who fly by the seat of their hiking pants, answer when nature calls them unexpectedly, and don’t take life too seriously–unless in this case it’s yours.

Any Location Drop Off

Multiple 24/7 Shack locations means returning your can of bear spray has never been easier. Even if you’re out exploring nature from dusk to dawn, you can conveniently return your rental to any location, any time.

Coming 2025 - Online Reservations

For the practical, precise humans that are uber responsible. The salt-of-the-earth, used to ordering ahead types of ‘outdoorsy’ people.

Don’t Skip the BS

Rentals start as low as $10.

  • Don’t worry if you don’t see us in our normal spots. We’ll be back next season. . But for now the machines are coming home for the winter to get some much needed TLC and upgrades so we can come back next year stronger than ever on our quest to be the best bear spray rental there is!
  • Uhhh yeah. We chose Chunk cuz he’s a big boi, and still looks like a squished bowling pin laying on its side… if it had 4 legs and was a bear. . Yep. Low effort. Time to go drink more DayQuil like it’s never being made again. 👍
  • These are our picks on who will make it to the final. And if it is both of them….. I don’t know what we’re going to do…. . Grazer was obviously a shoe-in. How could you not vote for this girl. And then Chunk… well he’s got our ugly hot vote. He may be shaped like a squished bowling pin laying on its side… but we like that in our bears.
  • Maybe Chunk will be a bit a of divisive figure because of his attack on Grazer’s cub. But bears be bears and they will do bear things. And none of that should take away from the chonkiness Chunk embodies (literally). . We always have to remember that while it’s fun to anthropomorphize animals for the sake of these contests. They are still animals that will do animal things based on animal instincts and behaviors. This doesn’t make them good or bad. It just makes them animals. . Nature has no intentions. Nature just is.
  • It’s Day 3 time! . It was a tough call to turn our backs on our pick of 909 Jr. … but I mean… Grazer… need I say more? . And we finally caved to the peer pressure and chose Gully over Bear Force One.
  • Seriously. From the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for the support. . This was our first full season operating, and what a banger of a season. It gives us a lot of stoke and hope that our crazy little idea was worth the hard work we put into it. . Thank you to our partners for being Trail Blazers with us. Thank you to our customers who saw the value in us. And thank you to all the random people I’ve talked to this summer that just wanted to talk about how cool they think this all is. . We can’t wait for next season! . And of course don’t forget to vote for your favorite badonka chonk of a bear. We admit Walker has the bigger bootay, but we feel that 901 put it more work and gained more ground. Walker was already a chonky boi.
